Katrina and Social Security Reform
These two topic shouldn’t go together, but if the Angry Left can combine hurricanes and racism, then I can combine hurricanes and Social Security reform. Ted Kennedy, liberal stalwarth, said recently, “what the heck is a stalwarth? Did you misspell ‘stalworth’? What kind of cheesy website are you running?” Then he said, “What the American [...]

When Diane & I discuss dating topics with other church singles, always we end up discussing the proper roles of men and women in both dating and in marriage. Usually we end up agreeing that men are not taking the role of “spiritual leader” properly in accordance with Ephesians 5 and 1 Corinthians 11. The [...]

Lamentations of the Father by Ian Frazier Laws Pertaining to the Living Room Of the beasts of the field, and of the fishes of the sea, and of all foods that are acceptable in my sight you may eat, but not in the living room. Of the hoofed animals, broiled or ground into burgers, you [...]

My brain is not yet in gear this Monday morning, so I’ll just recap the weekend. Friday night Diane and I caught “Million Dollar Baby.” Highly recommended; although it’s a boxing movie, it’s not what you expect. Hilary Swank was terrific; she sure can throw a punch. In the race for Oscars, I thought this [...]

Houston recently mandated the “Safe Clear” towing program. It wasn’t interesting enough to talk about at the time, but it gets more and more interesting. The original idea was to get motorists off the road when they break down to prevent additional accidents. You must accept the tow; you must get in the tow truck; [...]

They come back, don’t they? My son and I left early for Sam Houston State. There were lots of errands to do; old dad was huffin’ and puffin’ emptying both cars. College teens were whistling while carrying 200 lb trunks on their shoulders; I’m dragging a suitcase. With wheels. Then a trip over to the [...]

I took my son out to his grandmother’s for brunch this morning; sort of a send-off for him as he heads off o college for the first time. He’s sort of getting organized, but not very quickly. I’m starting to wonder if he’s going to finish packing today. We leave at 7:00am in two cars [...]

This just in: John Kerry plans to accept the nomination. *zzzzz* I’ve barely discussed the Democratic National Convention. And do you know why? That’s right. It’s B-O-R-I-N-G. The only thing remotely interesting was Teresa Heinz telling a reporter to shove it. I was hoping for something interesting to happen: John Kerry announces a new “Principles [...]

Ya know, if you’re John Kerry and you’re gonna give a speech in Detroit and give a speech about the plight of the American worker, perhaps toodling around in a Rolls Royce for the day might send the wrong message. Sen. John Kerry spoke about the plight of the American worker when he traveled to [...]
